Hey Miro Pioneers,
Welcome to our first official challenge in the series How Do You Miro! 
We’ve all seen that getting the best ideas and results out of virtual meetings and workshops requires energy, attention, and engagement from every attendee. But it’s hard to energize a group of people who aren’t physically together in the same room. That’s why icebreakers are such an important part of virtual meetings and why we strive to make them easy and fun in Miro.
After launching Miroverse, our community templates gallery, we've shown that Miro Pioneers push the boundaries of what can be achieved with Miro every day.
So, today we want to announce the first-ever Miro templates contest: How Do You Miro? Icebreaker Challenge. It’s time for you to unleash your creativity and show the community your best example of the icebreaker! 
Challenge details:
The challenge starts today (July 20th), and will last until August 7th. We will announce the winners the following week to give our judges enough time to find our Judges Choice. Submissions will be judged for their creativity and ease of use.
People’s Choice award will be based on top likes in the online community. Make sure to vote for your favourite template by August 14th.
To enter, all you need to do is to embed the board with your icebreaker in the comments below. Make sure to include the following details to your message:
